Clear Wet Floor Safety Warning

The Scan Folding A-Board Safety Sign displays the message:

Warning Wet floor

Wet floors can create a slipping hazard, particularly in busy environments where people may not notice water, cleaning solutions or recently washed surfaces.

A clearly positioned warning sign helps alert people to the potential hazard so they can take additional care.

The Scan Wet Floor Sign is particularly useful during routine cleaning, after spillages or wherever temporary wet floor conditions occur.

Important: A warning sign helps communicate a hazard but does not remove the need to clean spills promptly and make the area safe.

Double-Sided Warning Message

The Scan Wet Floor A-Board Sign features pre-printed warnings on both sides.

This makes the message visible to people approaching from different directions.

Double-Sided Sign Benefits

• Helps warn people approaching from either side

• Practical for corridors and walkways

• Suitable for entrances and communal areas

• Reduces the need for separate signs in simple two-direction approaches

• Provides clear hazard communication in busy environments

The sign should be positioned where it can be seen before someone reaches the wet floor area.

For larger areas or locations with multiple approaches, additional warning signs or barriers may be necessary.

Heavy-Duty Polypropylene Construction

The Scan Folding Wet Floor Sign is manufactured from heavy-duty polypropylene, a durable plastic material suitable for reusable safety signage.

Its construction makes it practical for everyday cleaning and maintenance activities.

Polypropylene Benefits

• Durable plastic construction

• Lightweight enough for convenient handling

• Practical for repeated use

• Suitable for portable safety signage

• Easy to move between cleaning locations

• Convenient for general workplace use

The supplied specification does not state the sign's weight, colour or a particular weather-resistance rating.

Folding A-Board Design

The folding A-board construction allows the sign to stand independently on a suitable level floor.

When no longer required, the sign folds flat for easier storage and transportation.

Folding Design Benefits

• Freestanding format

• No wall fixing required

• Folds flat when not in use

• Convenient for storage cupboards and cleaning areas

• Easy to transport between locations

• Practical for mobile cleaning teams

This makes the Scan Wet Floor Sign a useful accessory for routine cleaning work in buildings with multiple rooms, corridors or communal spaces.

Clear Writing & Illustration

The Scan Wet Floor Warning Sign combines a written warning with a clear illustration.

This helps communicate the hazard quickly and makes the sign easy to recognise.

Its 62cm height provides a prominent display above floor level, while the 30cm width creates a practical format for use in many indoor environments.

The sign should remain clearly visible and should not be placed where it creates an additional obstruction or trip hazard.

Suitable Applications

Offices & Commercial Buildings

Useful for warning employees and visitors about freshly cleaned floors, spills and temporary wet areas.

Shops & Retail Premises

Practical for alerting customers to wet floor conditions near entrances, aisles and cleaning areas.

Hotels & Hospitality Venues

Suitable for temporary warnings in corridors, reception areas and other shared spaces.

Restaurants & Cafés

Can help communicate slip hazards following cleaning or spillages in appropriate areas.

Schools & Educational Buildings

Useful for cleaning and maintenance teams working in corridors and communal areas.

Hospitals & Healthcare Facilities

Practical for appropriately managed cleaning activities where temporary wet floor warnings are required.

Warehouses & Industrial Premises

Can be used to alert workers to temporary wet floor hazards in suitable pedestrian areas.

Public Buildings & Leisure Facilities

Useful for communicating temporary slippery floor conditions in shared access areas.

Important: The sign is intended for temporary hazard communication. It should not replace suitable barriers or access restrictions where the risk requires them.

Helps Support Slip Prevention

Slips are a common workplace hazard, particularly where floors become wet or contaminated.

A clearly displayed wet floor sign can help make people aware of temporary conditions that require additional caution.

However, effective slip prevention involves more than signage.

Appropriate precautions may include:

• Cleaning up spillages promptly

• Using suitable cleaning methods

• Allowing floors to dry where practical

• Restricting access to hazardous areas when necessary

• Providing suitable floor surfaces

• Maintaining good housekeeping

• Checking for recurring slip hazards

The Scan Warning Wet Floor A-Board Sign can form part of these broader safety arrangements.

Displaying a warning sign does not automatically establish legal compliance or eliminate liability for accidents.

How to Use the Scan Wet Floor A-Board Sign

1. Identify the wet or potentially slippery area.

2. Open the folding A-board sign fully.

3. Position it on a suitable level surface where it is stable.

4. Ensure the warning is visible before people reach the hazard.

5. Check that the sign does not obstruct an emergency exit or create a new trip hazard.

6. Use additional signs or barriers if the area has multiple approaches.

7. Remove the sign once the floor is safe and the warning is no longer required.

8. Fold the sign flat and return it to storage.

For active spillages or significant slip risks, prioritise making the area safe rather than relying on the sign alone.

Easy Storage & Transportation

The Scan Folding Wet Floor Sign is designed to fold flat when not in use.

This makes it practical for cleaning teams that need to move safety signs between rooms or buildings.

The folded design can help reduce the space required for storage in cleaning cupboards, maintenance rooms and equipment areas.

Its reusable construction also makes it suitable for regular cleaning schedules.

Care & Maintenance

To keep the Scan Wet Floor Warning Sign in good condition:

• Wipe away dirt and cleaning residue after use.

• Keep both printed warnings clear and legible.

• Inspect the folding mechanism periodically.

• Check for cracks or other damage.

• Avoid abrasive cleaning products that could damage the printed message.

• Allow the sign to dry before storing where practical.

• Store it folded in a suitable location.

• Replace the sign if it becomes damaged, unstable or difficult to read.

Regular inspection helps ensure the sign remains suitable for use.

Important Safety Information

The Scan Warning Wet Floor Folding A-Board Sign is intended to provide a visible warning of temporary wet floor conditions.

It is not a substitute for:

• Suitable cleaning procedures

• Workplace slip risk assessments

• Appropriate access restrictions

• Safe floor maintenance

• Suitable footwear where required

• Effective housekeeping arrangements

Where a floor presents a significant hazard, additional measures may be necessary to prevent access until the area is safe.
